YP G70 read only?? - Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0

Hi all
I have in my hands a Samsung YP G70 with this problem: I need to format it, clean it COMPLETELY.
I tried the following things:
1-Using the stock recovery, clean data and cache
2-Flash via Odin (different processes): his original firmware (same version), another firmware, a Kernel that should included the CWM Recovery
3-Root with Kingo
4-Tried to flash the TWRP flashable version into his stock recovery
5-Restore at factory default from the player
No one worked
After the reboot I will always have the same data (same accounts, same photos, same apps)
If I add a file, after a reboot, the file disappear; if I delete a file, after a reboot, the file re-appear.
So: how can I completely clean it? Or should I trash cause the memory allocator gone crazy?
Thanks a lot

Please post the output of "mount" after a normal boot ( not in recovery )
You can do this in adb by doing:
adb shell
su
mount
or in a terminal app
su
mount
Then copy the output here or a screenshot with the info is fine...

If you have the USA variant try flashing this with Odin:

Flashed via Odin3 v1.87 into PDA but after the reboot I have the same data as before, so not worked...

Hmm.. Not sure whats goin' on.... When did this start???

I really don't know
A friend gave it to me asking for a check because he noticed that when installed an application, after a reboot the app disappears.. He thought about a virus so he asked to clean it...

You could try the "getto lagfix":
This converts your file systems from rfs to ext4...
It's been a long time since I messed with stock GB so read and understand carefully before attempting...

So even if you flash a kernel it does not change?

Nope... Tried but not works... Same kernel after the reboot from Odin

[Q] Wrong Partition Type

I soft bricked my Vibrant after installing Bionix 1.4 w/Jacs OC/UV/Voodoo kernel. I used Odin to flash back to stock rom which was unsuccessful. It allowed me to boot to the samsung logo and then go black.
Grasping at straws I used clockwork recovery to do a nandroid restore to the vibrant9 rom I was running before (with the KingKlick kernel, but as I understand it nandroid doesnt backup or restore kernels). I thought maybe the kernel got switched back to the stock one but I'm lacking a ROM? Anyway, nandroid restored the system files but when going to restore data it gave me an error about not finding mmcblk0p2, when I go into adb shell and type mount, it tells me I have mmcblk0p3.
Is there any way for me to fix this so I can restore from my nandroid backups? I have everything in titanium and I can still access all the data on the sd card, but I'd really like to just have things back to how they were before installing the Bionix.
Thanks!
Here is a complete copy of what comes up when I hit mount if it helps. Could really use some assistance here, I try to do as much on my own as possible but I've hit a dead end.

Ok, thanks for all the help guys....
Anyway, for anyone who is having the same problem, I found my solution to be to get into download mode via instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=741027&highlight=unbrick
And then follow the instructions in Fix 1 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=782027
I had to upgrade to froyo then downgrade to get my file system back.
I'm now on stock Vibrant kernel and rom, but flashing Bionix 1.5 in a moment (NO VOODOO!!!)
Exact same thing
i had to do the exact same thing this morning. except mine would boot up fully. i couldnt get the internal memory to recognize at all so i couldnt disable the lagfix
blah blah blah... odin and fix 1 worked. i wished i had backups on my computer i should know better by now too. thats the stupid part. all that data lost.
Yea, I'm not new to this sort of thing, just this piece of hardware. I felt really confident after flashing a few ROM's and always read instructions for each new install, I was really surprised to find myself in that pickle. At least I learned something.
Going forward I'm being very dilligent about organizing a backup of my nandroid backups, different ROM's, everything needed to get back to stock, and most importantly the contents of my internal SD card! Nothing had ever messed with that partitioin before so I thought it would be fine, I also thought that nandroid or titanium would backup all my e-books since they were imported into Aldiko, WRONG-O!, it just saves the library index, gotta re-import over 600 books :O
Gotta love nothing ever being good enuf, now I'm off to fix what I broke on my car...

[Q] Wiping Dalvik Cache in Clockword Recovery

Ok so I have a question about wiping the Dalvik Cache in Clockword Recovery. When I boot into recovery I go to Advanced > Wipe Dalvik Cache. Upon clicking this I am prompted with
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p2 <----IS THIS NORMAL?
(File exists)
Then it brings up the no,no,no, yes - wipe dalvik cache,no, no, no screen and I click yes and it says that everything went smooth.
I wiped the cache w/out disabling voodoo from clockwork and just want to make sure this is either A-normal or B-needs to be fixed. Voodoo has since been disabled and I then flashed to JFD Stock and then JI6 Stock and everything seems fine. I just remember reading that the "can't mount" is terrible news when coupled with Voodoo. Can anyone one confirm for me whether this is normal or not? Thanks!
Can someone help shed some light on this please? When I mount in terminal I get this back
$ export PATH=/data/local/bin:$PATH

I've done mount before and there is definitely something funny about this. I think it's that "/dev/block/stl6 /mnt/lfs j4fs" towards the top. Voodoo it's disabled so why does it still look off? Anyone?
Not sure but I am getting the same thing on my droid incredible. Same error, wonder if that is why some of my rom's are acting strange.

I actually figured it out. The partition mmcblk1p2 is used for installing apps to your external SD card which is only present in froyo. So if you are running 2.1 Eclair then its normal for it not to be able to mount it, but if you are running froyo then there might be a prob...

[Q] First Rom ready! How i can upload it?

I have done these works :
1. Removed full battery notification
2. Installed supercurio kernel
3. Removed touchwiz launcher (replaced with the stock gingerbread of the nexus s 9020)
4. Removed all Samsung stuff (unuseful) except voice commands and dlna.
Now i would share this with all the comunity, but how i can do this ?
(i can't do a nandroid backup because clockworkmod isn't avaible).
Please, help me, this phone it's terrible with all samsung customization!
Im pretty sure you can create an ODIN package.
I am not sure if the partitions are the same on SGS2 (dont own one yet) but take a look at this.

****URGENT****
When trying to make odin flashable image, i have this error after these commands :
# su
# mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system
# dd if=/dev/block/stl9 of=/sdcard/factoryfs.rfs bs=4096
/dev/block/stl9: cannot open for read: No such file or directory
I have followed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=960946 but seems to be not good for S2. I think that /dev/memory addressing it's different.
Who can help me?
In shell type mount and see on what stl is mounted /system. I DONT OWN A SGS 2! If you don't have some basic linux knowledge and dont know how the phone works, don't do this! I'm really serious!
But if you wanna go ahead you will need to find out your mount points. Is vital!
How i can see on what stl is mounted system? there isn't an fstab file?

Nope, sorry. I need the device to figure it out really, as I've not worked with a Samsung before. And I don't know about repackaging a ROM into a tar for ODIN based on a dump.
I wouldn't want to try and help either, as I need the device to actually check it properly, and wouldn't want you or someone else to have to try reflashing after messing something up...
Never looked at using a dump before - I prefer to take the stock ROM and modify it on my PC tbh

Yes, but stock rom come with odin files format.
If i want to cook a rom i must start from sources, from a system dump, or from a zip rom (in nexus s i remember that rom are packaged in zip)....
Me too
I have the same problem, do you have find a solution?
I don't want to ruin your mojo, the more people interested in android, the better... but I'm a bit worried if inexperienced people give other inexperienced people things to flash with Odin. Since your ROM doesn't bring anything new (all other roms have this already), why not put some more time in it, polish it a bit, and maybe you will get some original ideas to add to it, instead of rushing it like this, and possibly brick some phones?
The probleme is that i have no time to do this, i have created a system and i have modivied the cyanogenmod to work with this system, the probleme is that i should to find a better methode to install the cyanogenmod rom from a pc, it is not for me is for other simple users.

My kernel version is 3.40-perf [email protected] #1 and bootloader is unlocked.
I gained root by downgrading my firmware to .532 version and install rooting using a program called Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v33. After rooting is successful, install dualrecovery and upgrade my firmware to .757 version by flashing a specific zip file via recovery followed by flash FTF with Flashtool.
Am I doing it correctly? Is there a better way to do it?

I would try to reflash supersu and see if that fixes it
I'm not sure. I'm having the same issue, sort of. I can mount /system to read write easily but can't mount back to read only. Getting "resource busy" message. Running a 4.4.2 LG G2 ROM. Could it have anything to do with how /system is formatted within TWRP recovery? Idk.. Luckily not being able to mount as read only isn't exactly an issue but more of a nuisance.
Edit:: Found a solution minutes after posting.
Code:
su
mount -o remount,rw /system # works fine
mount -o remount,ro /system # resource busy error
mount -o remount ro /system # works fine without comma
With this knowledge I can go through and fix a few scripts that have the comma between remount and ro. Not sure why this is as it's always worked fine ever since my OG DROID.
Any updates ??

cannot mount internal storage after downgrade to 4.3

I tried to downgrade to 148 to get the cm install to work. Lost access to internal storage. I was using twrp 2.8.7.0 or 2.8.0, flashed the rooted stock ROM from another post here and lost access. I've tried the su command "restorecon -v -R /data/media" and now I can see the internal storage from the settings menu but not change the location from there.
Here is my terminal command "mount" result

What do I do now? I want to install the cm preview
Thanks for your time
CM12 and all other ROMs require you update your phone to Lollipop, B3xx.

And I'm ready to do that but I'm stuck in 4.3 with no access to the internal storage when I try to flash a new ROM. I'm thinking about going back to the recovery and get the ota update again and trying the cm install from there. Opinions?
Update* I got back to stock 309 with no ability to ota upgrade or install cm via twrp. Twrp still reports "unable to mount internal SD" but I have been able to browse, read, and write to it through the preloaded file explorer, after the "returncon -v -R data/media/" command through terminal in twrp 2.8.7.0.
once you are in 309, follow the cm install thread, and no need to worry about internal storage, at least for now.
copy rom and gapp to sdcard, which is called external storage, and flash it in twrp.
Getting stuck still at install in twrp. Cannot post a link to a screenshot so I'm gonna try to type it out. "this package supports bootloaders ... This device has boot loader unknown." And "e: error executing binary inside of zip..." I've tried all three of the custom ROM zips, cm, carbon, and PAC ROM with the same results.
What now?

Unmount in lollipop and format it. Or re run b309.
Also that unknown bootloader error, one reason is you didn't flash the twrp recovery from that CM preview thread 1st post. You have to flash that recovery image even you already have working twrp.
